To be honest--of course I have a vested interest--I see no end to the need for graduate funding. If we want to increase and be anywhere close to the rest of the OECD in graduate production, we must step up and increase the number over longer periods of time. But I know that governments work on shorter time periods, so even a three- to five-year window would make a big difference in planning.
